No one dared to ask Boss Zhou why he brushed his teeth at this time.
Aren't you supposed to brush your teeth after biting someone
After brushing my teeth,
Zhou Ze was not in a hurry to bite the old Taoist priest.
The nail on the index finger of his left hand slowly grew a little bit and gently pricked the old Taoist's chest.
Boss Zhou's familiarity with and ability to use the power of nails is much better than the effect of electric shock during rescue in the hospital. It's a pity that Zhou Ze is too lazy in this life. Otherwise, if he really ran to the Lin family to cling to the thighs of a doctor, his future would be limitless. He might even be able to strive to become an academician when he is old.
Of course, that is another kind of life, a life that exists in a hypothetical sense.
Under the stimulation of nails,
The old Taoist's body suddenly straightened up.
The blood from the nostrils spurted out directly.
biu
Two columns of blood shot out and hung on the wall in front.
Then,
The old Taoist blinked his eyes, a blush appeared on his face, and it seemed that his spirits were restored a lot at once.
“Ahem…”
The old Taoist turned his head and spat out the blood that was stuck in his throat. Only then did he notice that he was surrounded.
Lawyer An, who was kneeling on the left side of his body, was crying and snotting.
The old Taoist grinned.
Smiled,
Comforting:
"Old An, I am not dead yet."
Lawyer An shook his head and said, "It's okay. I'll practice first." (1)
Taoist priest: “…”
He almost couldn't get it up in one breath and kicked his legs.
Zhou Ze knew that the old Taoist's current state was due to the excessive blood loss that caused the body to be in a false state of excitement. This state could only last for a very short time. Even for a normal person, it was a huge overdraft on his body.
Of course, the old Taoist has another situation here, that is... the last flicker of life.
The old Taoist slowly turned his gaze towards Zhou Ze.
Family members know their own business.
In fact, he had been waiting for this day.
In the past year, I would live a normal day if I could, live a simple and plain life, and cherish every day.
But what is supposed to come has supposed to come.
This body eventually collapsed.
"boss… … "
The Taoist priest had called him "boss" many times before, but this time, he did so with extra sincerity.
"I… … "
"Stop talking, you can't die."
Upon hearing this, the old Taoist widened his eyes and said hurriedly:
"I don't want to be a zombie."
Lao Zhang frowned and said, "Master, it's good enough to have a job. Why are you so picky?"
Pause,
Lao Zhang advised with the attitude of a person who has experienced it:
"In fact, I soon got used to the days of being treated as a nobody."
Zhou Ze shook his neck, and two crisp sounds came from the joints, and two fangs slowly appeared.
The old Taoist shook his head repeatedly, expressing his resistance;
Didn't you say that I should go there naturally and spontaneously
Why don’t you keep your word
"The gates of hell haven't opened yet. After a person dies, his soul will suffer another round of torture, and in despair, his soul will fly away."
Feng Si said from the side that this was a threat, but it was also the truth.
After hearing this, the old Taoist stammered, and the faith in his heart seemed to be shaken a little.
“Squeak, squeak, squeak!!!”
At this time,
The little monkey ran over with a fish in his bag.
When they were doing the repair work, the Taoist priest and Lao Zhang were running out of cigarettes, so the Taoist priest sent the little monkey to help buy cigarettes.
“Squeak, squeak, squeak!!!”
The little monkey knelt beside the Taoist priest, looking at him for a while and then at Zhou Ze beside him.
immediately,
The little monkey grabbed Zhou Ze's arm with its two claws and shook it hard, begging Zhou Ze to save the Taoist priest.
In the entire library, the little monkey and the old Taoist are the closest. They are nominally master and pet, but in reality they are grandfather and grandson.
The little monkey immediately pointed with his paw at the three patches of hair of different colors on the back of his neck and shouted something anxiously.
Others may not understand, but Zhou Ze can understand. What the little monkey said was that he was willing to make the same choice as the mountain-moving monkey did, and exchange his own life for the old Taoist's life.
The little monkey had originally died at the hands of Zhou Ze, but before the Mountain-Moving Monkey passed away, the little monkey was given a new life with the help of his legacy.
The old Taoist looked at the little monkey, his eyes moistened, and said:
"It's alright, it's alright, life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are in the hands of God;
Well, this life has not been lived in vain, it has not been lived in vain, really."
The little monkey refused and kept crying and shouting at the Taoist priest.
There was a hint of open-mindedness and indifference in the old Taoist's eyes.
"Old Taoist, you can't be so depressed. Please be kind and think of me as someone who is thinking about me. Please don't die. I can't live without you, Old Taoist."
When Wang An, the King of Pingdeng, cried, everyone who heard him was heartbroken.
The old Taoist was somewhat moved.
He never expected that
Lawyer An and his feelings,
It’s so good!
well,
In this life,
There are few people who can shed a few tears for you at your funeral.
Be content.
The old Taoist felt that his strength was being drained from his body.
He felt as if he was getting lighter and lighter.
Getting lighter and lighter,
It was like it had turned into a ball of cotton and was about to float up.
This feeling seems to be quite good.
Um, I'm going to die.
Um, I'm going to die.
I'm going to die.
hey-hey!
“Bang!”
Like hitting the ceiling.
The old Taoist felt dizzy.
Then I found myself still lying here.
Lawyer An placed one hand on the Taoist's chest.
The Taoist's soul, which was about to leave his body, was forcibly brought back!
Taoist priest: “…”
The old Taoist gets the number of last moments +1
What evil have I done that I can't even die quickly!
Too,
Beside him sat the judge, the inspector, and the head of the police.
It is so difficult to die peacefully in accordance with the Basic Law.
"Old Taoist, the world is still beautiful. Have you forgotten your sisters? Have you forgotten the morning sun
To be honest with you, I'm still scared. If I hadn't been lucky enough to be chosen as a ghost messenger after my death, I wouldn't know where I would have gone now.
Where are you living as a muddleheaded human being or a muddleheaded dog... "
"Be a dog." Feng Si answered quickly.
“Shut up!”
Lawyer An turned to persuade the old Taoist priest, "Old Taoist priest, being alive is the best. Going to hell is really miserable. There are so many people crowded on the Yellow Spring Road. You can't guarantee that there will be someone with body odor next to you."
Old Zhang looked at Lawyer An in surprise.
I was thinking, what kind of body odor is so awesome that it can be carried into the soul
But thinking that Lawyer An had caught more ghosts than he had ever seen, he stopped talking.
Lawyer An sniffed and said, "Live, live, never give up hope of living at any time. Really, I'm an experienced person.
Besides, it’s hard to even go to hell now!”
The old Taoist felt helpless.
He can feel the care of people around him.
But he had been preparing himself mentally for "leaving" for almost two years, which was equivalent to two years of self-hypnosis.
Besides,
Um, I am ready to die.
You won't even let me die.
You guys are going too far.
Can you do whatever you want just because you have power
Facing the persuasion of Lawyer An,
The old Taoist said:
"I think, whoever says death is death, and whoever says life is life?"
Lawyer An was stunned for a moment.
Oh my god,
There are so many flashes of enlightenment this time that his brain becomes confused before he dies
"If no one defines it, what is death and what is life?"
The old Taoist sighed.
I want to die.
I have to convince the people around me first.
It's so hard and tiring. I envy those old friends in the hospital who died without any effective rescue.
Um, why is it so bitter
"Are you out of your mind?" Lawyer An asked doubtfully.
"The left side and the right side. Has the left side been called the left side and the right side been called the right side since the beginning?"
Upon hearing this, Lawyer An subconsciously looked at his left and right hands. What was he talking about
"If the earliest people called the world of the living the world of the dead, and the world of the dead the world of the living, wouldn't the world of the living become the world of the dead, and the world of the dead become the world of the living?"
"You are dizzy, right? It doesn't matter if you say this to ordinary people. We are all ghosts here. How can we not be able to tell the difference between the living and the dead?"
A different light suddenly appeared in the Taoist's eyes. At this moment, even the Taoist himself might not know whether he was narrating his inner thoughts or saying something instinctively:
"The world of the living is alive, and the world of the dead is dead
You understand, you know;
Yes, you understand, yes, you know.
The densely packed crowds of people on the Yellow Springs Road are numb, ignorant, and muddled. In your eyes, they are stupid, dead, and consciousnessless waste.
But maybe,
This is the real happiness, this is the real liberation.
Being free, one has nothing to worry about; therefore, one has nothing to fear; therefore, one is at ease.
They threw aside all restraints, threw aside the struggles of the world of the living, threw aside the joys and anger of the world of the living, threw aside the pain of the world of the living, and threw aside all fetters.
They are clean and transparent like jade. Do you think they are purer than newborns in the world of the living
This is it.
A true new life!
This is it.
Really live!
Wait until I finish walking the Yellow Springs Road, wait until I circle the government office, wait until I step onto the Naihe Bridge, wait until I drink the bowl of Mengpo soup, wait until I step into the afterlife, into the next life...
Purity, freedom, and great ease will soon come to an end.
Next,
You will work hard to earn a living, you will face birth, aging, sickness and death, and you will face all kinds of responsibilities that you will have to bear before and after you grow up.
You will feel pain, you will feel sadness, you will feel stress, you will feel despair.
That body of flesh and blood, that heavy skin, are the shackles and chains you have to bear since you came out of the mother's womb!
It keeps pressing on you.
First half of life,
The shackles will become heavier and heavier, pressing you down,
The second half of life,
When the shackles are rusty, they will continue to torture you in different ways.
finally,
You have endured so much pain and torture for so long,
When you are about to die,
Only then can you break free from these shackles and find your purest, freest and most comfortable self.
Therefore, the living people in the world of the living are actually the dead who are truly suffering from torture; and the dead souls in the underworld are the living people who truly exist in the purest way!
The world of the living is hell; the world of the dead is the human world!
Death is not actually death. Death is the true meaning of life.
And living is the true meaning of dying!"
Lawyer An, Feng Si, and Lao Zhang: “… ”
Everyone felt that what the Taoist said was strange, but inexplicably, it seemed to make sense!
Zhou Ze seemed to be thinking about something, and suddenly asked:
"You're done?"
The old Taoist's face flushed again, several times brighter than before.
Slowly said:
"That's all.
Amitabha... Buddha."
